Problem with IP address converstion from a string

[Alpha]

I'm getting a connection error when I used the following code to connect to a
server on our LAN with IP address. Can someone take a look and tell me if
you see something wrong? I'm just getting back error message that it's time
out and no connection was made.
Thanks, Alpha

string ServerIP = "192.168.7.1"
m_socClient = new Socket(AddressFamily.InterNetwork, SocketType.Stream,
ProtocolType.Tcp);
String ServerIP = server;
String szPort = "22333";
int alPort = System.Convert.ToInt16 (szPort,10);

System.Net.IPAddress remoteIPAddress = System.Net.IPAddress.Parse(ServerIP);
System.Net.IPEndPoint remoteEndPoint = new
System.Net.IPEndPoint(remoteIPAddress, alPort);
m_socClient.Connect(remoteEndPoint);

Alpha,

From what I can tell, this isn't an issue with parsing the IP address
from a string. You seem to have the port and the ip address converted
correctly.

Are you sure that the port 22333 on IP address 192.168.7.1 is valid?
Can you telnet into it?
